Slot Features
There are several Wild symbols in the game and all of them can substitute for a win to help form win combos. In addition to helping you form a win, they can also trigger the Revenge Free Spins feature.
Revenge Free Spins
Landing 3 or more Wild symbols on the same spin will trigger the feature and award a certain number of spins. The number of spins awarded will be determined by the number of triggering symbols. For 3, 4 or 5 Wilds you can win 10, 12 or 15 spins, respectively. All Wilds in the feature will be sticky including the triggering Wilds, till the feature ends. Any additional Wild that may land will award 1 extra spin.
If you do not want to wait for regular triggers, you can buy your way into the feature for x100 or x400 the bet, which will trigger the feature with 3+ or 4+ Wilds, however, the buy feature option may not be available in all the markets.
Summary
Sticky Bandits Trail of Blood is the fourth instalment in the series and seems to be the most volatile one thus far. Yes, the feature department is sparse, but that does not stop the game to look and deliver the stunning hard-edge effect. The game is also very generous in terms of win potential as it offers a cap of x17000 the bet at 96.23% RTP. If Western slots are your thing, then you should not miss on this one.
Sticky Bandits Trail of Blood is one of the latest games I explored from QuickSpin. It's a very new game and I initially saw it in one of my sessions at one of the casinos I play at. I'm familiar with the Sticky Bandits series slots and I have to say, I quite like them. They are very similar to Dead or Alive slots due to the free spins with sticky wilds, but in all the years I've played Dead or Alive, I've never accomplished any major wins while I've had a few nice hits on the Sticky Bandits slots.
What I liked about the new Sticky Bandits slot was the simplicity and the game design. The game design is still Wild West looking but with a dark color scheme, so it's the perfect game for the cold season. In terms of mechanics, the game has 5 reels and 10 paylines and a free spins bonus round. The base game is very simple- there are high and low paying symbols and wilds. But wilds in this game play a different role- they're also scatters. To get the free spins bonus round, you need to get 3 or more wilds/ scatters. Then you get 10 or more free spins, depending on the amount of scatters you triggered the bonus with. What I like here are several things- first of all, the wilds that landed the bonus round will remain sticky for the duration of the bonus. Secondly, whenever you land an additional wild, you get 1 extra free spin. Also, you can buy the bonus for either 100x bet- for that you are guaranteed to trigger the bonus with 3 or more wilds, or for 400x bet for at least 4 wilds. I've bought the bonus a few times, even the super bonus, and I quite liked it. I am not sure if I would recommend the super bonus as if the wilds don't land on a line, the payouts are rather low. But I also think this game has great winning potential. For the first time ever I had a wild line on this game and I ended up with a win of over 2,000x bet as I had a few spins with a wild line. It's definitely thrilling, considering I've never had that with Dead or Alive, for example.Â
Overall, I think this game has great winning potential and in many ways I find it more exciting than Dead or Alive. It is very volatile and I'd recommend being careful with the bonus buys- especially the 400x bet buy, but it's definitely one of my favorites from QuickSpin and also it's the game I've had my highest win from any of QuickSpin games.
